Father's Day is a fairly new celebration in the British calendar compared with Mother's Day, which has been a very popular and well celebrated festival in the UK for a very long time.
The origins of the celebration are American and it was inspired by the actions of a man named William Smart. He was a veteran of the US Civil War and his wife died giving birth to their sixth child. He raised six children alone without remarrying, which was undoubtedly unusual back in those days. His daughter, Sonora Dodd, realised when she was an adult what her father had sacrificed for his children. It was in the early 1900s and she was actually at church one day, listening to a sermon on Mother's Day. She thought there should also be a Father's Day celebration. And so the tradition was born, on the third Sunday every June, close to the anniversary of Sonora's father's death. Britain took the idea of Father's Day from the American celebration and it has been celebrated officially since the 1970s.
Father's Day is never quite such the big commercial event that Mother's Day is, probably because it hasn't been in existence for so long. But what do British people do for Father's Day? Well,most people would buy their fathers a card.The card would probably have a nice message in it saying what a great Dad their father is.Some people do buy presents as well. Popular gifts for Dads are probably ties, chocolates or socks because these are things that Dads can always use even if they don't want them. In the runup to Father's Day, or indeed Mother's Day, there will be adverts on the TV giving us ideas of CDs or gadgets we can buy. Card shops will be full of mugs or pens and similar merchandise with “World's Greatest Dad” written on them.Some families might do things together to celebrate Father's Day like going for a meal. As a special treat, British people might give their Dad a bit of a rest—make him a cup of tea, or even wash his car and mow the grass to make him feel really appreciated.
36.Where did Father's Day come from?
A.America. B.A church.
C.Britain. D.TV.
答案:A 由第二段第一句中的“The origins of the celebration are American...”可知父亲节起源于美国。虽然文章中也出现了B、C、D三项内容,但却都不是父亲节的来源。
37.When did Britain begin to celebrate Father's Day?
A.In the late 1900s.
B.In the year of Sonora's father's death.
C.About 70 years later than America.
D.We don't know.
答案:C 根据第二段第五句中的“It was in the early 1900s...”和该段最后一句中的“... since the 1970s.”可知英国是在晚于美国大约70年后才开始庆祝父亲节的。
38.What do people usually do for Father's Day?
A.To buy their fathers a card.
B.To go for a meal.
C.To make their fathers a cup of tea.
D.To wash their fathers' car.
答案:A 由第三段第三句“Well, most people would buy their fathers a card.”可知大多数人的做法应是A项。而B、C、D三项只是部分人的做法。
39.What do most people buy for their fathers?
A.CDs or gadgets.
B.Ties, chocolates or socks.
C.Mugs or pens.
D.A meal.
答案:B 由第三段第六句中的“Popular gifts for Dads are probably ties, chocolates or socks...”可知B项正确。

The Sahara Festival is a celebration of the very recent past. The threeday event is not fixed to the same dates each year, but generally takes place in November or December. It is well attended by tourists, but even better attended by locals.
During the opening ceremonies, after the official greetings from the government leaders, people who attend the festival begin to march smartly before the viewing stands, and white camels transport their riders across the sands. Horsemen from different nations display their beautiful clothes and their fine horsemanship. One following another, groups of musicians and dancers from all over the Sahara take their turn to show off their wonderful traditional culture. Groups of men in blue and yellow play horns and beat drums as they dance in different designs. On their knees in the sand, a group of women in long dark dresses dance with their hair: their long, dark, shiny hair is thrown back and forth in the wind to the rhythm of their dance.
The local and visiting Italian dogs are anxious to run after hares. The crowd is on its feet for the camel races. Camels and riders run far into the distance, and then return to the finish line in front of the cheering people.
Towards the evening, there comes the grand finale of the opening day, an extremely exciting horserace. All the riders run very fast on horseback. Some riders hang off the side of their saddles. Some even ride upside down — their legs and feet straight up in the air — all at full speed. Others rush down the course together, men arm in arm, on different horses. On and on they went. So fast and so wonderful!
40. The Sahara Festival is a festival which________.
A.has a very long history in North Africa
B.is held in the same place on the same day
C.is attended mainly by the people in the Sahara
D.is celebrated mostly by travelers from different countries
答案:C 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“but even better attended by locals.”确定答案。

A.musicians, dancers, horses and hares
B.camel riders, musicians, dogs and hares
C.horsemen, dancers, camels and dogs
D.musicians, officials, camels and horses
答案:D 细节理解题。 根据第二段,对参加节日开幕式活动的介绍D项中的musicians, officials, camels and horse都提到了。
42. The underlined word “finale” in the fourth paragraph most probably means the ________of the opening day.
A.first part B.middle
C.last part D.whole
答案:C 词义猜测题。根据前面的叙述和该句中的towards the evening, 说明是开幕式的最后了,所以C正确。
43. This passage mainly tells readers________.
A.what happens on the opening day of the Sahara Festival
B.how people celebrate during the threeday Sahara Festival
C.what takes place at the closing ceremonies of the Sahara Festival
D.how animals race on the first and the last days of the Sahara Festival
答案:A 主旨大意题。从文中第二段第一句话“During the opening ceremonies,”可以看出,本文主要是介绍“撒哈拉节”开幕式上的活动。答案选A。
C
There was a story many years ago of a school teacher—Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn't play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.
Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother's perfume(香水).
Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.”After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children.
Mrs. Thomspon paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy's mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.
Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, M.D.(医学博士).
The story doesn't end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson's ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.”
Mrs. Thomspon, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn't know how to teach until I met you.”
文章大意:Mrs. Thompson收到了她并不喜欢的学生Teddy的圣诞礼物。礼物是Teddy过世了的妈妈的香水。Mrs. Thompson大为震撼,并真正懂得了教师工作的意义。
44.What did Mrs. Thompson do on the first day of school?
A.She made Teddy feel ashamed.
B.She asked the children to play with Teddy.

A.He often told lies.
B.He was good at math.
C.He needed motherly care.
D.He enjoyed playing with others.

46.In what way did Mrs. Thompson change?
A.She taught fewer school subjects.
B.She became strict with her students.
C.She no longer liked her job as a teacher.
D.She cared more about educating students.
答案:D 细节判断题。由第三段“On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children.”可推知。
47.Why did Teddy thank Mrs. Thompson at his wedding?
